Frontier Photographic Studio

The Old West Costume Photography Studio specializes in quality portraits that portray you in old west costumes, in character, with the Gold Rush Era. You have a choice of antique, sepia tone, or full color.(antique appears as hand tinted colors- faded and subdued) Show Reservations are available.

Traveling Old West Costume Photographic Studio

Our Traveling Old West Costume Photography Studio is portable and is contained in our 16' tandem axle enclosed trailer. This allows us the luxury of arriving at an event, lowering our ramp and unloading costume racks and gear quickly. Our set up time is 20 minutes to completely set up and be ready to shoot. We can set up using our Canvas Trade Tents or have the option of using our Waterproof Specialty Show Tents which feature multiple roof vents, screened and flapped windows as well as multiple flapped and zippered entries. We use Sony Pro Digital Cameras DSC-F828 8MP 4 COLOR SUPER DADCCD WITH ZEISS LENS & 7X OPTICAL ZOOM and print all Photos on site.

Photography Sets & Props

Gold Camp Photography Sets include functional, as well as, facade structures. Gold Camp staffers and equipment are available for private and commercial film shoots and most all special events.

Sheriff's Office & Jail Set

Our Sheriff's Office Set can be set up next to the Miners Tent Camp. This makes it convienent for the Sheriff to keep and eye on the Miners Camp where the most lawless bunch west of the Pecos seems to have collected and lolliegag about. Claim jumpers and high graders hang out in more ways than one. The jail is actually from the Arizona Territories, being the iron strap variety.

Dead Stump Panning Shack Set

The Dead Stump Mining Company offers Gold Panning at your event. The Paydirt provided is from the Motherlode area of Placerville (Hangtown) and contains real gold flakes, grains and nuggets. Panning for Gold includes a glass vial for your Gold and professional instruction. Gold Camp offers a variety of gold pans and panning accessories for any tin horn who may catch a case of Gold Fever.
